Believe it or not, a Russian woman holds the record for giving birth to 69 children. This is among the celebrated medical anomalies of multiple births. This is Mrs. Vassilet (1816-1872), the first wife of Fyodor Vassilet, a farmer from Shuya, Russia. She went through no less than 27 pregnancies, wherein she had twins 16 times, triplets 7 times, and 4 times quadruplets, which brings out a total of 69 children! Whooa!
The most amazing fact here is that, majority of the children lived up to their adult age, which was rare that time due to lack of medical know-how.
Mrs Vassilet’s fecundity made her so famous that she even met tsar Alexander II. So it looks like Mrs Duggar, with her 17 children, has a long way to go…:-)
